Apparently you can’t win a championship if you make it difficult for Jokic to touch the ball

Even if he has 42 21 16 on you, you have to let him keep getting the ball if you want to win a championshipApparently you can’t win a championship if you make it difficult for Jokic to touch the ball

Basically it’s honor in someone giving you 40 if you manned up all night and didn’t ask for help

KAT is a b***h cause he fronted Jokic all night instead of letting him catch on the block & stopping him like a man
Thibs scheme on him last night was really good. Limited his paint touches & made him a perimeter player. Switch any DHO or screen.

People think the old heads of the league are bad now and then you see what the "New Media" is cooking up moving forward

In a world where SGA can’t beat him in the regular season or playoffs

Yea I’ll take the W
Fronting requires more communication than usual which is why it isn’t used as often as it should, but it’s the only way to consistently slow down a guy who operates mostly on the block.If he wants it, he has to catch it near the 3 point line, and he’s not breaking you down from out there. You essentially turn him from a big to a wing.
Schematically it works regardless of personnel if everyone is connected. Spo did it with Olynyk on AD in that bubble finals, won a game without Bam, AD was a non-factor.

SGA has passed him up. And considering Lukas build and health issues I dont see SGA looking back. He's the best guard in the league

SGA is going to have beat you with his scoring. Luka can beat you with passing and scoring. We lived with SGA getting his in the playoffs last season.

Outside of Joker, there's no one I want more controlling a playoff game than Luka.

Draymond of all people should know team defensive schemes >>>
Fronting a player all of a sudden makes you a *****. He's gonna be annoying forever isnt he.

Whatever extra Luka gives you on the offensive end, he is gonna take it away on the defensive end.

SGAs defense isn’t tilting a series though. Better defender but his scoring workload isn’t going to let him play lockdown defense

Welp he doesn't turn into a turnstile half the time because he is gassed, and go off on the refs to bail him out
So I'll take my chances

But you just saw what a Luka lead team looked like against an SGA lead team.
